About Me

Okanagan, BC, Canada
Welcome to my crafting blog. After retirement, my husband and I moved to a beautiful location in the Okanagan area of British Columbia. I love all paper crafts including mixed media, journaling and cards. I also dabble in papermaking, photography, fibre art, and altered books. I am an active member of several card and mixed media groups and on the design team of several challenge blog. I love the world of blogging, it has opened many doors for me. My favourite quote is by Maya Angelou. “You can’t use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have.” I hope you join me in my search for my creative side. Thanks for stopping by!

Creative Artiste Mixed Media Challenge - June

Time for another great challenge over at Creative Artiste

Our theme is always

"Anything Mixed Media Goes"

Please make sure you use multiple mediums on your projects. Please respect that we do not currently accept Instagram entries.  

The term “mixed media art” is a broad definition that covers many forms of arts and crafts, including collage, assemblage, altered objects, handmade greeting cards, artist trading cards (ATCs) tags and art journaling  as long as you use different mediums.

The “mixed media” used includes paint, paper, pastes, sprays, powders, textural elements, clay, resins, fabrics, found objects, photos, metal, inks, pencils, markers and pastels to name just a few.

This is my project for this month.





. This is what I started with, a beautiful mold that a friend gave me  


 

I also used  the following products to create my project. 

Gesso
wooden canvas
an asortment of inks
stencil
acylic paints
dollar store wooden stars and letters
Pentart Glamour Metallic
Pentart Lasur - chestnut
Martha Stewarts gold glitter
Liquitex - Flexible Modeling Paste

  2. That really is a beautiful mould your friend gifted you, painted with precision, how stunning this project is Judy. I really love the deep blue you chose for the background it really compliments both Mother and Child and brings them out to the forefront for us all to see. Such a heart warming creation.
